Gillum to miss Penn State game because of injury

Syracuse, NY -- Syracuse University starting outside linebacker Ryan Gillum will miss the Penn State game because of an injury, Orange head football coach Doug Marrone said on his weekly radio program Wednesday night.

The school's office of athletic communication released a statement Thursday night that said Gillum injured his right shoulder in practice on Tuesday. It added Gillum would be re-evaluated next week.

Gillum should be replaced by true freshman E.J. Carter at the Will or weakside outside position. Carter shared some playing time with Gillum in the Orange's opener last weekend against Minnesota.
